  "account": "KKR, a private equity firm, has invested over €20 billion in Germany since 1999. The firm's head, Herr Nuttall, expressed optimism about investing in Germany, citing the government's reform efforts and willingness to collaborate with private investors. However, he noted that Germany's tendency to focus on past failures rather than its strengths could deter investment. KKR has $140 billion in uninvested capital and sees significant potential for further investment in Germany, particularly in the mid-market and infrastructure sectors.",
  "summary": "The Co-CEO of the US asset manager announces more investments in Germany and names a specific industry in which KKR is intensively looking for partners.",
